to everyone:there was a terible fire in amarillo tx;Nascar, hope yur mom & all are ok...been thinking about you & praying. hugs to all, sleepypainter

i believe we are all connected;everything is connected on an atomic and subatomic level, so how can we be separate;how can one thing not affect another? another reason to be kind to each other...and to think before we speak. and to try to love one another or at least give up hatred for individuals. and i don't mean we should turn into Pollyanna .no way...we musk feel and acknowledge all our feelings;it's how we handle them. that is the hardest part for me, i:ve discovered. i don't like injustice & i don't stay quiet about it. sometimes i'm disliked for that. i can live with it...lots of practice.I was marching in the streets before a lot of you were born, so i think that tells you a lot. i'm not brave. but i care.
